Hey,

There is no support on our side to load gem dependencies from plugins,
at least at this moment.

A minimal approach would be to just rely on the gem being on PATH,
rescuing errors and asking the user to install it. Example:
http://github.com/pedro/heroku-mongo-sync/blob/master/lib/heroku/command/mongo.rb#L6-8
